I got real excited when I saw the title of your video. I'm from Savannah Georgia and have fond memories River Street. It hurt my heart to see how much they changed it. When I livedin Savannah you could not drive on River Street. It was all mom and pop stores and restaurants. We used to have local bands that would play on River Street on the weekends. We even had small shrimp boats that will come up and Dock. I remember buying a lot of shrimp from those boats It wasn't commercialized at all. No souvenir shops no big fancy hotels. I know time changes everything. But sometimes it can take the simple Joys away
I know the feeling. While this was our first visit to Savannah, we have traveled back to places we are from and been disappointed that things have changed so much. Makes us wish we had a lot more pictures and videos of how we remember things. It sounds like River Street used to be wonderful - though as first time visitors we certainly enjoyed it for what it is as well. Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment!
I can imagine why you would love it. We were only in Savannah for one day but everything we saw was so beautiful and we can't wait to go back. It really is a great spot for foodies too. Thank you so much for watching our video!
Thanks for watching our video! Savannah, GA is a lovely city to visit. We are glad we got to visit it. Hope you will visit again to see our future travels. Thanks again!
My wife and I went to Savannah Georgia in 2019. We were there for 5 days and stood at a hotel 2 blocks from River street. It’s such a historical beautiful city. Felt like our stay was way too short and definitely want to go back there soon.
Savannah really is such a beautiful city. We can't wait to go back as well. There are so many things we still want to see in the area. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment!
Even though we only had a few hours to spend there, Savannah was so beautiful! You are fortunate to live in such a beautiful city. We can't wait to return to see more of it! Thanks for watching - and for the kind compliment!
I've always wanted to go to Savannah. It's always looked so beautiful. I love the architecture, old south look and water views. I enjoy the fun of tourist trap towns with all of the shops. The memorial is a great way to honor our fallen soldiers. Seafood... mmmm! I love your videos. You visit so many fun places.
Thanks for the compliment TripN With Red! We love your videos too! I wish we had more time in Savannah. We were only there for a day tacked on to the end of our Hilton Head, SC trip. We will have to plan a longer trip in the future! Thanks so much for watching.
There were a ton of really good restaurant options all over Savannah. We saw some restaurants with huge lines out the door. Seems like a great destination for foodies. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Loved this video, I was raised in Georgia, now living in California but family still in Georgia. I haven't been to Savannah in years but will be there a couple of days in June while visiting family. This video was really helpful and informative!
I hope you have a great time visiting family in Savannah in June. We only got to spend one day there but are planning a return trip. It was such a lovely city with a lot more to see. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
We really enjoyed Savannah too on our visit. We wish we had more than a day to spend there. We will have to try to visit Georgia again soon. Thanks for watching!
Indeed. We were only there a few hours in the morning and early afternoon so we didn’t make it to any bars. But we did pass numerous bars that seemed to have a very cool vibe! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thanks for this tour. I lived in south GA for a decade but only made it to the outskirts of Savannah when I traveled there to show my dogs. It was nice to see some of what I missed in the city proper. Man those carmel apples looked GOOD 😋 and your meal looked amazing! I really need to take Xander out for shrimp one of these days. 🤔 👍
Georgia is a beautiful state! And River Street is a gem. The old cobblestone streets and the riverboats going by were beautiful. And the food really was delicious. I am sure Xander would love some shrimp. He deserves the treat! Thanks so much for watching our video!
Such a nice tour! The shops were neat and streets. Really great info given and captured all in just one day! That peanut butter dessert looked yummy! 👍
We really wished we had more time to stay in Savannah, GA. We kind of tacked it on to a Hilton Head Island vacation since it wasn't far away. But we would love to go back. We did see a lot in that one day and it was all lovely. That peanut butter dessert was delicious! Thanks so much for watching our video and taking the time to leave a comment!
We are very excited for you! You will love Savannah. There are a ton of wonderful restaurants there. And lots to see and do. We can't wait to go back one day ourselves. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
It was a lot of fun. We will have to go back though because while it took most of a day to tour everything on River Street, there is a lot more to the town in addition to this street. Thanks so much for watching our video, Jenn!
OMG, I used to go there once or twice a year as I used to live in Atlanta. Thanks for brining me back as I no longer live in the east coast. LIKE #1. Stay safe my friends. 👍👍👍👍
Glad we could take you back! We loved the one day we spent Savannah and have to plan a longer trip to see more. This trip was tacked on to our Hilton Head, SC trip. Thanks so much for watching and liking!
whilecin the army ft stewart i spent my weekends on river st they usto close the st so a train could come down the middle once a day i'd go to a small cobblestone bar with a one man band i'd park on a lot on a hill & hope my parking brake held
Savannah has been on our list for the longest time! It's not too far from Orlando so we need to plan a weekend trip. This video made me excited to check it out!!!
We had such a wonderful day in Savannah and wish we could have stayed longer. It was such a lovely day visiting River Street. I hope you are able to plan a trip there soon. You will have a blast! Thanks for watching and commenting!
He didn't burn it because he was given it by the mayor of Savannah, he had heard that Sherman had burned every city he went through and so he promised to surrender the city with no opposition as long as Sherman didn't burn it down, and he agreed.
Sorry to hear that! It did look a little sketchy. There are plenty of good places to eat in Savannah so I hope you find a much better one the next time you are in the area! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Sorry to hear your experiences were not good in Savannah. It seems pleasant enough just traveling through but I guess someone doesn't really know an area until they live there a while. Hope you have found your way to a place where you are happier. Thanks for watching!
Great video you guys!!!! I’m visiting next week and your video is very helpful

River Street is an awesome place to hang out. Thanks for watching! And thanks for your service!
Miss the ole River Street Rambler playing the blues ------
I live just outside of Savannah, one of my favorite candy stores is Riverstreet Sweets! It's overall the best on on the block!
Savannah has been on our list for the longest time! It's not too far from Orlando so we need to plan a weekend trip. This video made me excited to check it out!!!
We had such a wonderful day in Savannah and wish we could have stayed longer. It was such a lovely day visiting River Street. I hope you are able to plan a trip there soon. You will have a blast! Thanks for watching and commenting!
This is a place meant for walking, not driving, when time permits.
Sherman marched thru there. Didnt burn it but took the cotton(by choice) and freed some slaves(not by choice).Old historical city.
There is indeed a lot of history to Savannah. Thanks for sharing some of it with us!
He didn't burn it because he was given it by the mayor of Savannah, he had heard that Sherman had burned every city he went through and so he promised to surrender the city with no opposition as long as Sherman didn't burn it down, and he agreed.

Sorry not sorry, but man, that place got me sick.
Sorry to hear that! It did look a little sketchy. There are plenty of good places to eat in Savannah so I hope you find a much better one the next time you are in the area! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Sadly, you are seeing Savannah as a tourist. The real Savannah is horrible.
I suppose that is the upside to traveling. You are never around long enough to experience any negatives that may exist. Thanks for watching.
GLAD YOU SAID IT... I HAVE TO AGREE!!!
🤣🤡
THE WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER LIVED, MAYBE OK TO VISIT BUT DEFINITELY NOT TO MOVE 🤢!!!
Sorry to hear your experiences were not good in Savannah. It seems pleasant enough just traveling through but I guess someone doesn't really know an area until they live there a while. Hope you have found your way to a place where you are happier. Thanks for watching!
